"This is something I have wanted to do all my life so it's definitely a dream come true!" said Jenner, who will also serve as an executive producer on the show. "I can't wait for this new adventure to begin."

"Whether offering real advice to her family or sharing personal moments with viewers, Kris is honest, compelling, entertaining, and unscripted - all excellent qualities for a daytime talk show host," added Stephen Brown, EVP of Development &Programming, Twentieth Television, which will produce and distribute the Jenner's show.

"Kris" becomes the latest in a series of daytime talkers that have received Fox test runs in recent years. The strategy proved successful for "The Wendy Williams Show" and "Bethenny," which have both gone on to enjoy popular syndicated runs.
